Did I mention poor Michael happens to be our biggest Landlord Minister #speirgorm

Someone stole my wife's maroon Raleigh Motus bike in Dublin City Centre this afternoon. If you see it, give me a shout

Cork needs more green spaces. Sign the petition to turn a derelict site into a park.

I find these lovely buildings depressing every time I see them. Surely these are a protected structure and the OPW can intervene? #Cork #Ireland #vandalism

You think what's being done to land-based ecosystems is bad? Take a look at what's happening under the sea. It's as if all birds and other wild animals were being hoovered out of forests for our mass consumption, shredding the trees and everything else in the process. Out of sight, out of mind.

He Who Remains Stephen Archer is retiring this summer, so I had a look back at this 300 cap legends time at the club. It's free to read. www.threeredkings.com/cult-hero-0w...

We live in eternal hope 😳 #derilictCork

Our next public lecture is on 14th of April. Check out our website for more details. I am really looking forward to this one. corkastronomyclub.com/calendar/

Figures released to @rodericogorman.bsky.social show just €7.5m was spent of €150m State fund to purchase vacant and derelict homes. Read more below 👇 www.irishtimes.com/ireland/hous...

Commercial LNG operators clearly receiving positive signals from the new Government. A commercial LNG facility will lessen the drive towards renewables, make it harder to reach our climate targets and puts profits right into the hands of polluters.... www.rte.ie/news/ireland...

It's depressing to see the OPW pursue this environmentally and economically damaging scheme. Upstream storage would cost just 1/10th of the cost of this over engineered monstrosity. Even if it's done, businesses won't be able to get insurance. www.irishexaminer.com/news/munster...

This is the empty saline seabed where I traced the source of liquorice which makes fishermans friend no longer taste like recently washed human anus

Shameful decision from Sweden which has no excuse for exterminating wolves like this. Imagine India decided to halve its tiger population, or Kenya its lions? There'd be an outcry. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A social distancing cheat chart:

Fascinating piece from Lloyds List about the Russian tanker boarded by the Finnish coast guard on Christmas Day. Turns out it was packed to the gills with surveillance gear that used so much power they occasionally caused brownouts on board.
